    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      Unfortunately, there isn't a way to store luggage at the starting hotel. We recommend bringing only what you can comfortably carry and managing your luggage accordingly. Alternatively, you could look into arranging private luggage storage in Istanbul independently, there are several services near the city center that offer this at a reasonable cost.

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten February 2024

      On our trips, rooming is organised on a twin-share basis. We pair up solo travellers with another traveller of the same gender as per the gender marker on each of their passports. A single supplement is bookable if you'd prefer not to share a room on this trip and is subject to availability. The single supplement excludes Day 3 & 4 (multi-share Guesthouse) and Day 13 (Overnight Bus).
